Little by little, the box opened, revealing the situation inside, a stone statue dressed in dwarven costume lay in the box, the stone statue and the creature were almost indistinguishable, the eyebrows were clear, the hair was visible, and the hands were folded on the chest. However, without Bato, no one would think that this is a living person, even if it looks like a human, but its whole body is the peculiar blue-white of marble, and to the touch it is also the cold and hard touch of a rock, and there is no undulation on the chest, and there is no sign of life at all. Even with Barto's explanation, the girls were still skeptical, because the stone statue was so much like a delicate sculpture that all their perceptions told them that it was just a stone statue in front of them.

But fortunately, Pannis mentioned the heartbeat, and the girls listened attentively, and sure enough, every minute or so, a slight heartbeat came from the chest cavity of the stone statue, which is undoubtedly the best proof.

"Is this Councillor Serra?" Catherine said, looking at the statue, "The talent of the dwarves is really amazing, and if I were an enemy, I am afraid that even if I saw this statue in person, I would not believe that this is Councillor Serra himself." ”

"This is Lord Serra. Even in the face of the stone-like Serra, Barto still maintained respect, and naturally saluted the stone statue, and then turned his head and said, "I don't know how to treat Serra-sama, after all, I haven't seen the priests perform spells on the petrified people, but I think you should know better than me, Miss Priest." ”

"How could it be. Lina pouted, "I'm not a dwarf, so I certainly don't know how to cast a spell on a stone statue." However, I think that her essence is still a creature, and I can try to release the magic directly on her, maybe it will have an effect. ”

Lina leaned over to the edge of the box and looked at the stone statue of Serra in the box, which was so realistic that even the wrinkles on her face and the long beard under her chin were clearly visible. Judging from the appearance of the stone statue, Serra is already very old, but the wrinkled old face reveals a kind demeanor, which makes people can't help but feel a sense of intimacy. Lina looked at it for a while, and finally made up her mind to give it a try, so she picked up the silver Dharma book, turned it page by page, turned to one of them, pointed her finger on the page, and recited the prayer softly. As she prayed, pale green light converged around the statue from all directions, wrapping the statue in the center, as if it were the green shimmer of the statue itself.

The light kept shining around the statue, and five minutes passed, and there was still no sign of stopping. But the joy on Barto's face became stronger and stronger, and the scene in front of him showed that although Lina was just trying, the magic did take effect, which meant that everything was developing in the direction that was thought of, and his Lord Serra was finally saved.

It wasn't until ten minutes later that Lina closed the law book and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's such a weird poison, it's so difficult to disperse, but fortunately, I finally dispelled all the toxins." It's also because her own energy can't cooperate at all, but it will interfere with the magic technique of expelling toxins, otherwise it should be faster. ”

"Is that all right?" asked Catherine, "just waiting for her to wake up on her own?"

"No, I can't. Lina shook her head and said, "I checked it by the way when I expelled the toxin just now, and the injuries to her internal organs were relatively serious. Although she turned her outer skin and muscles into stone, the inside was still normal flesh and blood, and the injuries she suffered were fatal, not just skin injuries. I found that when this talent changes, it will slow down the physiological functions such as heartbeat, breathing, and blood circulation by dozens of times, but fortunately, she used the petrification technique to turn into stone in time, so that the blood flowing from the wound of the internal organs coagulated in time, otherwise I am afraid she would not be able to support it now. Okay, I'm going to start treating internal injuries, this time it's a loss, ordinary magic is definitely useless, and I have to use the dust of rebirth. ”

The Dust of Rebirth is the strongest healing spell that the priest of the God of Love can cast before advancing to the Legendary Rank, and it is believed to be a healing spell that can save people even if there is only one breath left. Correspondingly, the consumption of the caster itself is also very large, basically casting this magic spell, you can make a gold-level priest in the best state consume all his magic and spiritual power, even if the magic power reserves and spiritual power strength of the legendary priest are much higher than that of the gold-level priest, but in the face of the spell of rebirth dust, it is only three or four at a time.

"Bless God's people in the name of Denia, the God of Love. Lina's face was full of holiness, even the sinner's mark on her forehead revealed a divine radiance, and with the chanting in her mouth, Lina waved her hand gently, and a piece of white sand was thrown out of her hand, and it was evenly sprinkled on Serra's petrified body: "Miracle, dust of rebirth." ”

For a moment, as if the other people around him had an illusion, a pair of eyes full of love appeared in the air above Lina's head, and a gentle gaze passed over Lina and fixed on the stone statue of Serra. Under the gaze of the eyes, the stone statue suddenly exudes vigorous vitality, as if it is about to come back to life at any time. Of course, this is just the illusion of the vitality of life converging inside the stone statue.

Barto almost danced with joy, and Lina did something he didn't expect. In his original plan, he just wanted to ask Lina to help detoxify and then give a simple treatment to Lord Serra. After all, petrification is not a panacea, although it slows down the body's functions, it is by no means completely frozen, and if it drags on for a long time, the injury will still worsen and even die, so he originally hoped that after Lina's simple treatment, Master Sierra could support it for a longer time, at least until he rushed back to Chongshan City. But he never thought that this priest with the mark of a sinner would have a spell like the Dust of Rebirth at his fingertips, as a dwarf who takes the goddess of the earth as his second faith, Barto still has a certain understanding of the type of magic of the goddess priest, and knows very well the difficulty and effect of the dust of rebirth, so when he heard the name of the magic of the dust of rebirth, he knew that Lord Sierra was not only saved, but also likely to recover completely soon, in this way, the petrification technique only lasted for a short period of three days, and the damage to Lord Serra's body would not be as great as originally estimated。

The biggest weakness of the petrification technique is its side effects, which will cause a great burden on the caster's body, basically every day that the petrification technique lasts, the caster's weakening period will increase by one to two years after the spell is lifted, and if the councillor is cured sooner than expected, Serra can recover a year earlier.

The white sand in Lina's hand seemed to be endless, constantly throwing on the petrified statue of Serra, and as the fine sand spread more and more, the silver-white light emitted from the stone statue became brighter and brighter, more and more dazzling, as if a silver sun had risen in the sky. Vivien's expression moved, and she waved her hand consciously, throwing out a mythril plate engraved with a magic circle, and laying a defensive measure around it to hide her traces, cutting off the line of sight between the inside and outside. If she didn't do it in time, I'm afraid the whole camp would be alarmed by this silver sun, and there would be no more secrets.

"In the name of Denya. When the sand formed by the magic in her hand was finally sprinkled, Lina clasped her fingers together and chanted loudly: "O element of life, show your power here." ”

As he prayed, the silver light flickered, as if the sun had suddenly disappeared into the sky. But everyone can clearly see that these silver rays did not disappear out of thin air, but seeped into the interior of the stone statue at the fastest speed, and were completely absorbed by Serra's body. Inside the stone statue, which people can't see, the life energy brought by the silver light is silently repairing Serra's damaged body.

After doing all this, Lina sighed and took a few steps backwards in a row. Catherine reached out in time to support her and asked in a low voice, "It's okay, do you want to sit down and rest for a while?"

"Not yet. Lina shook her head and said, "It's more expensive than I imagined, and it took three rebirth dust in a row to gather enough life energy for her to recover her health." I don't know if she was too seriously injured, or because after she petrified, not only did she minimize the internal activities of her body, but also affected the effect of the divine arts, anyway, the treatment was very difficult. Luckily, we were promoted to legend, and if it had been two months ago, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to cure her at all. ”

"It should be the reason for the petrification technique. Pannis, handing the spirit recovery potion from Vivien to Lina, explained in a low voice, "Her injuries can't really be that bad. If someone is so badly injured that it will take three Dust of Rebirth to heal......"

"It would have been a dead man a long time ago. Lina nodded, "So I just thought it was strange, how could there be such a big consumption." ”

"Mr. Barto. Freya's gaze moved away from the restored dim stone statue to Barto's face, who was praying to the god of fire and forging: "The person is also healed, how can I wake her up? If I can't wake her up in time, it doesn't make sense to cure her now." ”

"Huh?" Bartow froze, he had never thought about it. In the past, if someone in the clan used the petrification technique, they were all sent to the Earth Temple for treatment, and they would only be sent out after recovering from the petrification state, and he himself had never used this talent, and there were no companions around him, so he didn't know how to wake up the petrified people at all.

Seeing Bato's reaction, Freya sighed, completely desperate for Bato's head. Vivien snickered and patted Freya on the waist in sympathy.

"Huh?" Vivien was just about to open her mouth to comfort Freya in despair, when she suddenly exclaimed, pointed to the stone statue and said, "I don't think I need to think about how to wake her up, you see." ”

A series of sounds came from inside the statue, and a large number of cracks appeared on the smooth surface of the statue. The cracks became more and more dense, and after covering the entire surface of the stone statue, they suddenly exploded in all directions, and a large amount of rubble and dust rose up, obscuring the space around the stone statue.
